inPolygon | Path | |

outMassCenter | Point2D |
Description
The operation computes the mass center of a polygon bounded by a closed path.
Note that if the input path is not a valid polygon (i.e. it has at least one self-intersection), the computation may lead to results that are not intuitive.
Examples

The resulting outMassCenters drawn onto the sample polygon.
